Female & male are adjectives, not nouns. When you say female, you need to add a noun. Female...turtle? Female squirrel?

Its not exclusive to humans bc it speaks only abt genitalia. You could be talking about literally any animal's vag.

Thats why its gross to call women females.

Thats also why its inherently transphobic to talk abt ppl in terms of male & female. Youre identifying us by smthg that doesnt even make us human. You strip us down to parts we share with animals and remove our humanity. This is esp bad for ppl trying to be more than our bodies.

When youre talking about humans, people with full identities and lived experiences, even if you're talking biological science, there are very few reasons to describe us as male and female. Even medicine and anatomy are impacted by so much more than the identification of genitals.

Tldr; For the love of all things holy and unholy, stop calling people male and female.

Muting the thread since the transphobes have found it and popped into my DMs.
